CVE-2016-3042
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Web UI in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) Liberty before 16.0.0.3 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving OpenID Connect clients.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.13%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
